The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I think the most interesting aspect of this type of think is the psychological, not the political. You have a certain group of people, mostly on the Far Left, who are predicting, hoping for, wishing for, disaster. Widespread punishment. Doom sayers, awaiting inevitable Armageddon. Whether its climate change, data centers, A.I., Greenland, or whatever.

Yet when Armageddon doesn't happen, they aren't relieved. They aren't happy.

They are frustrated. They are angry.

Most of them are atheists or at least not very religious. So they have to create their own personal Hells. That's fine, but the rest of us don't want to join them.

Replying to Dope1

If you believe this claptrap, then you’re the one with a rubber strip tied around your arm with a needle stuck in your vein, waiting for the next refill.


You should be up on your drug scene. Nowadays the lefty political rage junkies boils up the fetty on some foil and inhales away.

Rage all your want. You people lost your sh1t for the 5,000th time on Greenland and rather than celebrate the win and think about the possibilities this deal represents you'd still rather lose your sh1t.

Junkies gonna junkie.
